"Authorization Error - Error 400: invalid_request"

[jzohrab]

Hi there, requesting set-up assistance, and if I can solve it I'll contribute some docs back.

org-gcal used to work, but has stopped. I updated the installation to this repo (following https://melpa.org/#/org-gcal) and trying org-gcal-request-token gives me the following:

I created a new google project with the Calendar API as shown in the README. I believe I've done everything correctly.

I deleted the .org-gcal-token as suggested in #173, no effect.

When I run the request-token function, it shows the following in the minibuffer:

Please visit (if it doesn't open automatically): https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth?client_id=459054706968-8m53jnousbu20s39ne982a3264p38ep4.apps.googleusercontent.com&response_type=code&redirect_uri=urn%3Aietf%3Awg%3Aoauth%3A2.0%3Aoob&scope=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.googleapis.com%2Fauth%2Fcalendar

going to that link also gives the same error screen.

Any thoughts? Cheers, jz

I'm facing same issue after I moved from ivy to vertico on doom. My org-gcal settings stopped to work. The variables like org-gcal-client-id and org-gcal-client-secret don't load.If I load them manually the org-gcal gets the "rx '**' error" (#172).

I've solved this with (unpin! org-gcal)

I moved from ivy to vertico on doom.

I found a command (require 'ivy) in my settings, the issue is not related to vertico. Did you add your email to the test users list in the OAuth Consent Screen?

Seems like Google deprecated their OAuth flow, which is why we see this error message. Therefore the authentication method stopped working since 28.02.2022.
